<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I went through all the steps to download and set up gitlab in virtualbox. Network adapter is bridged, virtual machine seems good. But when I try to access it in a browser with <a href="https://IP" rel="nofollow">https://IP</a> it does not work, sats connection time out or cannot display page.</p>
<p>any help please and thank you.</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20150728/gitlab-cannot-connect-http-browser#commentsSupportbrowserconnectgitlabhttpnetworkservervirtualboxvmTue, 28 Jul 2015 18:23:13 +0000lucas17630 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgTKL Wordpress on VMware ESXi Intermittent Network Issuehttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20130428/tkl-wordpress-vmware-esxi-intermittent-network-issue
<p>I am having a nagging problem with the TKL-Wordpress appliance. &nbsp;I downloaded the latest version and installed it on my VMware ESXi 5.1.0 server. &nbsp;There were a few steps that I had to go through, but I got it running without much difficulty. &nbsp;Networking was the biggest hitch, and I ended up deleting the NIC and recreating it, which seemed to solve the issue I was having. &nbsp;The server is now accessible externally (off the local network), and all the features (Wordpress, Webmin, phpAdmin, Shell, etc.) work as expected.</p>
<p>However, after some period of time (usually &lt;10 minutes), the web server stops responding. &nbsp;I can ping the server externally, and Apache is still running, but cannot be accessed from a web browser. &nbsp;If I ping from the server console to an external site, after a brief but noticeable pause, pings respond. &nbsp;After this action I can once again access the web server externally for another 10 or 15 minutes until I have to start the process all over again.</p>
<p>I have checked and re-checked the VM ware config, looked at the /etc/network/interfaces file (which had an extra entry from the original NIC I deleted), and looked in the logs, but I don&#39;t see any errors that point to what the problem might be.</p>
<p>Does anyone have any ideas? &nbsp;Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Greetings!</p>
<p>I&#39;m using LAPP (Debian) on a server for use at a client&#39;s laboratory. Now that it&#39;s here, I realized I forgot to install the fonts to the server. The server is on the network, and technically has access to the outside world, but the IT crew here has a configuration script they direct computers to for loading the appropriate proxy settings and whatnot. In windows there&#39;s an obvious place to put in the address of the script, but I can&#39;t find how to do this in Linux. Guidance would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20130114/networking-using-automatic-configuration-script#commentsSupportconfiguration scriptnetworkMon, 14 Jan 2013 14:35:17 +0000Jason Adams4463 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgNetwork Management or Monitoringhttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/general/20121020/network-management-monitoring
<p>I misremembered. I thought there was a network monitoring solution in the huge 12.0 appliance library. I&#39;m sorry if I&#39;m missing it. I&#39;ve been looking for something to monitor and management the ridiculous number of servers running in our laboratory. Some are mad science; others are kind of vital.</p>
<p>I came across <a href="http://www.observium.org/wiki/Main_Page" rel="nofollow">observium</a>, and it looked perfect for our needs, so I thought I&#39;d take it for a spin with <a href="http://turnkeylinux.org/lamp" rel="nofollow">TKL LAMP</a>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Observium is an autodiscovering PHP/MySQL/SNMP based network monitoring which includes support for a wide range of network hardware and operating systems including Cisco, Linux, FreeBSD, Juniper, Brocade, Foundry, HP and many more.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>It&#39;s distributed via svn; installation is a breeze (there&#39;s an additionaly note for squeeze). I&#39;m imagining a patch solution for it, and it&#39;s not really overtaxing me. It&#39;s a standard lamp patch. The cypto-inithooks are no longer so crypto. So a turnkey solution for the web app is just a matter of being able to create and admin user in the sql file and then setting a proper password for it on first boot.</p>
<p>The installation instructions are here for Ubuntu and Debian5/6 are <a href="http://www.observium.org/wiki/Ubuntu_SVN_Installation" rel="nofollow">here</a>: <a href="http://www.observium.org/wiki/Ubuntu_SVN_Installation" rel="nofollow">http://www.observium.org/wiki/Ubuntu_SVN_Installation</a>. In all honesty the install directions are so good I don&#39;t suppose there&#39;s a need for build notes.</p>
<p>Anyone have experience with observium?</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/general/20121020/network-management-monitoring#commentsGeneraladministrationlampnetworktklpatchSat, 20 Oct 2012 15:58:19 +0000Rik Goldman4267 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgProblems with network card configuration after forced hardware upgradehttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20120803/problems-network-card-configuration-after-forced-hardware-upgrade
<p>After 2 years of excellent work, my Turnkey File Server failed with what proved to be a faulty motherboard. I have upgraded the mboard to Asus P5G41T from a a previous Asrock. The new Mboard has on-board Gigabit Lan which Turnkey does not recognise. So I installed a Realtek network card. On starting the Server, OS recognises existence of new network card as &quot;eth2&quot; but will not set StaticIP address or DHCP from Configuration Console. I just get Error with just &quot;eth2&quot; as message.</p>
<p>The Turnkey Linux installation routines on CD does not contain a &quot;recovery&quot; routine as might be found on Suse.</p>
<p>I tried <em>iconfig</em> at console $ but iconfig is not found.</p>
<p>Obviously I have to maintain the data on the hard-disk so a reinstallation is not an option.</p>
<p>Anything that has to be installed will have to be installed from a CD etc. .... because I have no network ....</p>
<p>Can someone point me in the right direction.</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20120803/problems-network-card-configuration-after-forced-hardware-upgrade#commentsSupportfile servernetworkFri, 03 Aug 2012 15:48:35 +0000Mark Richards3618 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgWindows VMWare Player - Access to Mantis appliance on the networkhttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20120711/windows-vmware-player-access-mantis-appliance-network
<p>Hello,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I want to access my mantis appliance i installed on a VMWare player on Windows 7. I disabled IIS7 on my Windows.</p>
<p>When i set up everything &quot;Host-Only&quot; I access it well with my browser on the host computer and it works great.</p>
<p>But now I want to share my mantis with a co worker on another computer.</p>
<p>I have only one IP address for my machine, so I decided to use NAT.</p>
<p>When i set NAT up, i can&#39;t access mantis with my browser (i use my local computer IP in the browser) and it&#39;s the same on the co worker computer.</p>
<p>How can i set it up correctly?</p>
<p>Thank you&nbsp;</p>

<p>
Hello All, I am using the version &quot;turnkey-fileserver-11.2-lucid-x86&quot; on a somewhat experimental setup, for me at least. I wanted to test turnkey in the most light-weight and frugal environment. I had a couple of old HP t5530 thin client lying around.</p>
<p>
You can check its details over here.</p>
<p>
<a href="http://www.parkytowers.me.uk/thin/HpT5530/index.shtml" rel="nofollow">http://www.parkytowers.me.uk/thin/HpT5530/index.shtml</a></p>
<p>
This small machine has fixed 128MB RAM and I had a 512MB Flash DOM installed in it for storage. Although i did read somewhere that the turnkey team has tested the server in the most minimum setup of 256MB RAM, but I wanted to go below and beyond by trying the installation on this little guy. So i burned the ISO file on a USB flash stick using the unetbootin from <a href="http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net</a></p>
<p>
&nbsp;</p>
<p>
It makes the USB stick bootable with default GRUB screen of running the TurnKey from USB or installing it onto a harddisk. I chose the first option of running it from the disk, and after waiting for quite sometime (have to give the discount for miniscule RAM and old hardware) it showed me the standard options of selecting IP address and stuff and finally started the turnkey server. I could check it by connecting to this machine from another one at the default <a href="https://myipaddress:12341" title="https://myipaddress:12341" rel="nofollow">https://myipaddress:12341</a>.</p>
<p>
This was a good news so I went on by trying to install it on a harddisk, but since the internal 512MB is too little , I added another flash USB stick (4GB) to the thin client to be used as installation disk (to be booted from USB). I chose the manual partitioning and kept all the partitions on the USB Flash stick except the /var partition which i thought (might be for frequent access) should be kept in internal 512MB DOM disk.</p>
<p>
The idea has worked and now I have a running TurnKey Fileserver on HP t5530. I have connected two USB harddisks (2TB each) to it and shared them via SAMBA networking. Have installed NTFS-3G in TurnKey Fileserver so the disks around mounted in fstab in read/write mode, somehow the standard ntfs filesystem built-in does not support SAMBA write on NTFS shares. The read/write rate i get on my CAT5 10/100MBps wired network is around 4MB/sec. Not very fast but enough for the while. I can stream the shared movies from the SAMBA shares to my NMT and XBMC based HTPC. The 1080p stuff streams without stuttering as well, more or less.</p>
<p>
Have updated the ubuntu packages as well and tried the upgrade distribution option too. Everything works except that a major glitch. During reading/streaming or writing to the SAMBA shares, sometimes at totally random time intervals, the WIRED network connection to the turnkey server drops. The network adapter totally stops responding. When this happens I cannot ping the turnkey fileserver niether can I access the SAMBA shares or the WebMin interface. Seems like there is no network adapter present in the machine. The only solution to it is to physically turn-off the machine and turn it back on after which everything starts working normally untill the same network black out happens again.</p>
<p>
I am no expert in CLI Linux, whatever the underlying Ubuntu has configrued is pretty much plug-n-play for the system devices. The network adapter as far as I know inside the machine is RealTek. You can check the datasheet here <a href="http://www.forestals.com/filebank/imagebank/products/T5530.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.forestals.com/filebank/imagebank/products/T5530.pdf</a></p>
<p>

<p>
Is there any way i can remedy the situation for a stable wired network connection, or maybe a way I can do troubleshooting or can get some logs to post over here for further guidance. Thanks for reading the long post and replying in advance.</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20111004/turnkey-fileserver-suddenly-stops-wired-network-interface#commentsSupportconnectiondisconnectsdropsnetworksambawiredTue, 04 Oct 2011 15:01:50 +0000HyperEscape2692 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgMarionnet Network Simulatorhttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/general/20110712/marionnet-network-simulator
Marionnet:
Marionnet is a virtual network laboratory: it allows users to define, configure and run complex computer networks without any need for physical setup. Only a single, possibly even non-networked GNU/Linux host machine is required to simulate a whole Ethernet network complete with computers, routers, hubs, switches, cables, and more. Support is also provided for integrating the virtual network with the physical host network.
It seems like Marionnet would make an effective patch for the TKL Client. I've used the build notes/script below to install on top of Backtrack 5, which seems to make sense to me for training future network engineers.http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/general/20110712/marionnet-network-simulator#commentsGeneralclientnetworktklclientTue, 12 Jul 2011 09:18:16 +0000Rik Goldman2462 at http://www.turnkeylinux.orgmount NAS share to LAMP server failshttp://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20110610/mount-nas-share-lamp-server-fails
<p>
Installed TurnKey LAMP server; allowed all updates.&nbsp; LAMP server is at 192.168.48.67.&nbsp; Created a directory (/var/www/Stan-and-Jeanne.com/pictures).&nbsp; I have a share on a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ named PicturesMaster that I want to mount at that directory.&nbsp; ReadyNAS is at 192.168.48.5.&nbsp; ReadyNAS help says to use &quot;mount 192.168.48.5:/PicturesMaster /var/www/Stan-and-Jeanne.com/pictures&quot;.&nbsp; This results in a mount error listing a dozen possible causes.&nbsp; I did all this as root.</p>
<p>
I can mount that share on an older UBUNTU LAMP server (v8.04 ... but as CIFS ... though I don&#39;t remember how I created the mount point, the names are the same ... I must have installed SAMBA).&nbsp; I can map that share on Windows 2000 and Windows 7.</p>
<p>
What did I miss, please?</p>
<p>
Thanks,</p>
<p>

<p>
Using the server app, but this appears to be a basic problem in the core.&nbsp; Using VMWare player, I get an issue I don&#39;t in VirtualBox running the exact same VM.&nbsp; Prefer to use VMWare because I have some other machines in it that need real floppy drive access I don&#39;t seem to be able to get in VirtualBox.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
Hosting on XP Pro 32 bit and using bridged network connection.</p>
<p>
When I run the appliance for the first time after a host boot, the configuration console tells me my IP address and the appropriate ports acquired via DHCP.&nbsp;&nbsp;Before it gets to that point, I see something fly by saying it obtained that IP lease.&nbsp; Router confirms the IP address is&nbsp;assigned to&nbsp;the VM.&nbsp; But the network really doesn&#39;t work.&nbsp; Can&#39;t ping in or out from/to host IP or another on the network.&nbsp; If I try to re-configure the network via DHCP, it will sometimes work and others it will say it failed.&nbsp; If I re-configure using a static IP <u>and the IP&nbsp;previously&nbsp;determined via DHCP</u>, it works every time.&nbsp; So, in a nutshell,&nbsp;it&#39;s getting a valid IP but somehow not properly applying it.</p>
<p>
Tried on both corporate (intended location, but no network admin rights to see what&#39;s going on) and home with same results.</p>
<p>
Saw some other messages, but none seem to apply.&nbsp; One concerned edits to etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and seemed promising, but that&#39;s a zero-length file and the messages seemed to indocate it was mostly applicable to install via .iso (which I did not).<br />
&nbsp;</p>
<p>
So, maybe it&#39;s a VMWare issue and I need to try asking over there.&nbsp; But maybe it&#39;s not.&nbsp; Or even if it is, maybe someone else here already has a solution.</p>http://www.turnkeylinux.org/forum/support/20110309/network-issue-turnkey-server-vmware-player#commentsSupportnetworkservervmwareWed, 09 Mar 2011 05:33:14 +0000Brian H2116 at http://www.turnkeylinux.org
